This article discusses the issue of slow performance when interacting with the Xiaomi Home integration in the Home Assistant interface and provides potential solutions for optimization. With over 1600 devices and 10000 entities, the interface can freeze for several minutes when attempting to update or add new devices. However, the initial configuration process is surprisingly smooth. To reproduce the issue, navigate to the configuration page, find the Xiaomi Home integration, and attempt to reconfigure or add a device. The expected behavior is a seamless and optimized process. The issue was first observed on November 30, 2025, with Home Assistant Core version 2025.11.2, Operation System version 16.3, and Xiaomi Home Integration version v0.4.5. To resolve this issue, it is essential to analyze the system logs and identify potential bottlenecks in the integration process. Some potential solutions include optimizing the database queries, improving the caching mechanism, and enhancing the user interface to handle large amounts of data more efficiently. By addressing these issues, users can enjoy a faster and more responsive Xiaomi Home Assistant experience.
